Once, a rabbit built a fantastic house where he lived very happily. He had designed it so well that, when a great rainstorm arrived which flooded nearly the whole woods and the homes of many animals, his remained untouched.

Soon, one after another, the homeless animals came to his door, asking if they could spend the winter with him in his house. He invited each visitor in, and gradually the house filled up until there was no room left. This discomfort didn’t bother the rabbit, because he felt he was being generous.

One day in spring, when all the animals had returned to their old homes, the rabbit was jumping about so absent-mindedly that he didn’t realize that a lynx (山猫) was lying in wait for him. One of the animals who had spent the winter in the rabbit’s house saw this, and warned the rabbit just in time, shouting an invitation to the rabbit to quickly take shelter in his home.

The lynx destroyed the rabbit’s home, but the rabbit managed to escape and run to hide in the home of another friend. For a whole day, the lynx followed the rabbit from burrow (地洞) to burrow, from cave to cave, but the rabbit always managed to save his life, helped all the time by the friends he had offered shelter to in the winter.

He felt very happy, not only for having escaped the lynx, but also at having made so many friends in the forest, thanks to his own generosity. 1. What was the rabbit in the story like?

also. All the boys told me I couldn’t do it because I was a girl. I was determined to prove them wrong, so Brett let me try his bike. I wasn’t on for one minute before I fell off. He came over to see if I was OK, but then started laughing.

That night I told my dad the whole story about how I wanted to be as good as boys. A few days later my dad told me he had found a nice bike. He brought it home and that was when I became the laughing stock of the neighborhood. All the boys thought it was a joke that I actually wanted to learn how to ride. My dad spent four long weeks teaching me everything I needed to know about the bike and the basics of riding. Day after day and night after night he worked with me, and I began to progress.

Each ride on my dirt bike, I got a little better, and finally I was ready for my first time on the trails. At first I couldn’t keep up and the boys had to wait for me. My bike constantly got stuck in the muddy creeks.

Every time I came back, I would cry, and every time I cried my dad was there to put his arms around me. He would tell me not to listen to them and that with more practice, I would be as good as others or better than them.

Things eventually got easier, as if I could ride with my eyes closed. I still am made fun of, not because I’m an amateur (技术不熟练的人) or not good, but because they felt threatened that a girl can do what they did.

Almost every kid in this country has eaten a Hershey chocolate bar. Hershey chocolate has become famous around the world.

Milton Hershey grew up in the rolling farm country of Pennsylvania. Milton Hershey first trained to become a printer. He worked for a small newspaper at first, and then decided that printing was not the right job for him.

Then he got a job at a candy factory in Pennsylvania. After working a few years, he decided to open his own candy business. His first business had to close down because it was not making money. After closing down his first business, he traveled to Denver, Colorado to learn how to make caramels (焦糖).

He took his new skills back to New York and worked selling candies in the street. But this second business also failed.

Finally, Milton Hershey moved back to the farm hills where he grew up. He then experimented with all sorts of different candies and chocolates. The area where he lived had lots of dairy farms, so he had a large and easy supply of fresh milk.

And he could get other supplies, such as sugar, from nearby Philadelphia. By 1893 he earned a million dollars per year. Since his chocolate dipped and chocolate flavored caramels were best sellers, he decided to make chocolate himself.

By experimenting, Milton Hershey discovered how to make delicious chocolate by using fresh sweet condensed (浓缩的) milk. His milk chocolates were so popular that he sold his caramel factory and focused his business on making chocolate only.

In 1903, Milton Hershey built a huge chocolate factory and an entire town to go with it. The town of Hershey, Pennsylvania had a streetcar line, schools, libraries, a sports arena, a community center and a special school for needy children.

Today, the town of Hershey is still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built. And if you ever visit, you can smell delicious chocolate smells just by driving through the town. 8. Which of the following is the correct order of the events about Hershey?
